Leaking names is a serious offense.
And the one who is guilt must be punished in order to avoid such incidents in
future.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBRwXlkB4_K9t2puWkbf7zUItwTdra2fwuJh0saAI8Fw_0togw-jIWUZJ9Ct8apvCb2g1qSsvBiH5gGm929XmIh6z9roHKdXu_3uxMHlfvufdoM0tv54AHWNQym8pghD9nNfy4a3y6G3vv/s200/Hand+cuffs.jpg)

A former Internal Revenue
Service examiner was arrested today at his home in Edgewater, N.J. on charges
that he illegally leaked the name of a confidential tax whistleblower to an
executive of the same bank that was the whistleblower’s target—a bank that
allegedly had $1 billion in unreported U.S. income.
According to a four count
criminal complaint filed in the Southern District of New York yesterday and
unsealed today, Dennis Lerner, 59, also violated federal conflict of interest
laws by seeking a job with that bank while he was examining it, and then
improperly seeking to influence his former colleagues at the IRS in their
dealings with the bank.
